There are also limitations on what can be burned outside. “It needs to be vegetative matter, not plastics, petroleum, rubber, and no wire insulation,” said Null. Some of the reasoning for limiting burning to the evening and night hours is due to environmental conditions. Between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. the humidity POMEROY — “Keeping our children safe is our top priority.” That was the overall message from Meigs County Sheriff Keith Wood, Superintendents Tony Deem, Scot Gheen and Steve Ohlinger and University of Rio Grande representatives Tom Sutton, Rebecca Long and Chief Scott Borden on Thursday morning as they discussed school safety. Wood and the three superintendents met on Wednesday to discuss how to improve upon safety measures already in place, including improvement in training and the possibility of adding an additional officer. The second-term sheriff said that when he first decided to run for the position his goal was to have School Resource Officers (SROs) in each of the schools. Having launched the SRO program in the county, Wood said there is still more that can and should be done. With looking at the possibility of another officer, the sheriff’s office is also looking at the potential of switching to the DARE program for the SROs. DARE provides a more structured program with an established curriculum for the officers to teach in specific grade levels. The sheriff commended the schools for being proactive See BURNING | 5A See STUDENTS | 8A Pomeroy Police Department photo First responders were called to the scene of a two vehicle collision in Pomeroy on Friday evening.

By working with youth in the community, the goal is to prevent young kids from beginning tobacco use, this way they never have to quit. As prevention is not always possible, the GCHD is making a strong effort to provide tobacco cessation services to community members who wish to get help breaking the habit. There are several health professionals at the GCHD trained to provide 5 A’s tobacco cessation counseling. This includes Tasha Alvaro, Family Nurse Practitioner, who can provide this counseling in conjunction with Nicotine Replacement Therapy for someone who has completed a health assessment. The Gallia County Health Department (GCHD) is committed to improving the health of our community in all aspects. The health department strives to expand services for treatment and prevention in an ongoing effort to meet community needs. As the health department has continued to grow, with the addition of a Tobacco Use Prevention and Cessation Program (TUPCP) in 2016 and the opening of a Primary Care Clinic and Family Practice (PCC), the health department continues to look toward the future for ways to continue to promote access to prevention services and access to care. Both the TUPCP and PCC have plans to expand available services in the coming months, as do other programs and departments within the GCHD. Recent collaboration between the TUPCP and the GCHD Harm Reduction Program resulted in new policy implementation that makes it mandatory for individuals who participate in the program to take tobacco cessation and treatment information at their first visit, in conjunction with drug treatment options and recommendations. A follow up discussion occurs at subsequent visits to see if these clients have sought treatment services or if they have any questions about the information they were given. The TUPCP is also working to implement smoke free housing in association with HUD housing programs. McKenzie Conley, the director of the TUPCP, will be working with HUD housing developments to provide education, resources, and support to housing members, in an effort to aid in cessation for current tobacco users, and prevention of onset in both youth and adults. The GCHD Primary Care Clinic and Family Practice, while newly opened, is in the works of expanding services. While the clinic already offers sick visit services, well-checks, annual exams, and birth control options, the clinic plans to add services for addiction treatment. The clinic is in the process of implementing a Vivitrol program. This program involves coordination with drug treatment counselors and specialist, partnership with local drug courts, and provision of Vivitrol, a medication that blocks opiate receptors in the body. The medication is administered once every 28 days to help patients stay sober from opiate and/or alcohol addiction. The clinic plans to start operation in the next month or two, pending policy approvals, and hopes to work with all community organizations and members to combat the substance abuse crisis impacting our area. Additionally, the clinic is working to start a youth support group, targeted at middle and high school adolescents who are impacted by drug use; either personally or by family use. The idea of this group is to provide a safe place for support, conversation, drug prevention information, and education on further topics pertinent to this age group such as reproductive health education. The GCHD staff are part of a collaborative team of individuals and organizations that comprises the Gallia County Justice Center building on Second Avenue across the street from the Gallia County Courthouse. The meetings are at 1:30 p.m. the first Monday of every Month. GALLIPOLIS — Gallipolis City Commission will hold its next meeting at 6 p.m. in the Gallipolis Municpal Building at 333 Third Avenue.

Community members that would like more information on any GCHD program are encouraged to call the health department at 740-441-2018. Ideas, collaboration, and concerns are always welcome.

Sibley, who founded the Gallipolis Daily Tribune exactly a century beforehand, I was reminded of the man’s most memorable quality as a journalist and individual — his outspokeness and courage in doing so. Dedicating himself to writing an editorial a day in the nearly 30 years he served as the newspaper’s publisher and editor, little escaped his attention and if he didn’t like what he saw or heard, a forceful what-for could be found within the paper’s columns. His opinion pieces were noted well beyond the Ohio Valley and attracted some national attention, leading to a later-in-life position as a widely-read editorialist on such topics as business and travel across an increasingly shrinking world. Kevin Sibley’s most lasting piece of work Kelly Contributing as a chronicler of the passing scene may be his 1901 book “The French columnist Five Hundred,” dealing with the settlement and founding of Gallipolis, but back in the day, his skills as a critic or advocate of daily issues brought notice to himself and his newspaper. “The wit and wisdom of W.G. Sibley formed an important part of our household fare,” T. Lloyd Bush, the Tribune’s city editor from 1928 until 1932, recalled of his youth. Born in 1860 at Racine, William Giddings Sibley entered upon what he called “the troubled waters of newspaperdom” in 1887 when he founded a weekly publication, the Meigs County Tribune, following a career in storekeeping, manufacture of cleaning fluids and other business ventures. He sold the Tribune to its leading opposition, the Pomeroy Telegraph, and looked to abandon country journalism until an opportunity arose in 1890 to buy the Weekly Tribune in Gallipolis. In October 1893, after sizing up the market, Sibley made the fateful decision to convert the Weekly Tribune into a daily publication. Already known for not mincing words editorially from his previous experience in Racine, Sibley let loose only a few weeks after the Tribune’s conversion to a daily source of news with an editorial protesting substandard living conditions for the community’s poor and its social consequences. “… Men who will buy up old shanties because they can get them for a song, and rent them to whoever they can get to occupy them, are enemies to the moral and material prosperity of a community,” Sibley raged. “Men who deal in that kind of real estate invite into the community on the one hand, all the vagabond element they have room for and on the other hand, are doing what they can to drive into vagabondism all who by sheer necessity are compelled to live in their miserable huts; for nothing so disheartens and degrades humanity as to chuck them in such cheerless surroundings.” For more than two decades such stronglyworded and deeply-held viewpoint found its way into print through Sibley as the Tribune expanded from its meager beginnings to become the only daily newspaper in Gallia County. His firm stance on matters both local and international became his identifying trademark, evidenced by his opposition to the practice of allowing party bosses to pick and choose candidates for countywide office. His stand put him at odds with the local political leadership content to leave things as they were, but eventually paved the way for candidate selection in a primary. As time went on, Sibley became less of a firebrand and his writings took on a mellower tone. Perhaps believing he had done all he could with the Tribune, he accepted the editorship of The Bee, the leading newspaper in Omaha, Neb., when it was offered to him in 1920. Homesickness prevailed, and within months Sibley found himself back in Gallipolis in a new role as a columnist for the Chicago-based Daily Journal of Commerce. Given the privilege of writing and submitting his odes to the U.S. business scene from his home, Sibley achieved a national following. One of his later compositions, “Thrift as a Joy,” was hailed for its message of sober fiscal behavior at a time of national excess in the decade following World War I. And prior to his death early in 1935, Sibley added to his endeavors a travel piece under the banner of “Along the Highway,” sharing space in the Tribune with such commentators as O.O. McIntyre and Will Rogers. In his day, Sibley recognized that in order to attract readership in a crowded market, controversy had to be a part of any publication with which he was involved. If it got him into hot water with all and sundry, it didn’t bother him, See KELLY | 7A THEIR VIEW Teaching children about faith Many of you may know me from my weekly God’s Kid Korner articles, but before I did that, I was a teacher for many years and also the children’s minister for a local church. I think it’s fair to say that children have been my passion for as long as I can remember. It was part of that love for kids that led me to be a mother, teacher, pastor, and certainly led me to write children’s sermons. I think the fact that I ended up publishing them weekly in a newspaper was probably God’s idea and doing because I never imagine that part! If the children of today are indeed our future (which they certainly are), how do we prepare them for the world they will have to live in? As a pastor, I wonder then, how do we prepare our children to walk with God in faith and trust, living the life He would have them live and keeping them from the pitfalls of sin all around us as they grow and mature? It’s a hard question, and I am sure I do not have all the answers, but I have some ideas and suggestions to possibly consider for not only parents but us all.

(And yes, that love sometimes includes discipline too remember, but done in love.) As I write this article, I am all too aware that a good home and home life is not always possible for many children. Work, stress, finances, illness, drugs, alcohol, and many other things can interfere with what God meant for our homes to be. If that is the case, we need to pray for God’s blessing over them and be a mentor to them as much as possible. A caring adult, coach, teacher, etc. can make all the difference to such a child, believe me. Also, if we just become aware, there are so many teachable moments to incorporate these things.

DeWine also said he was continuing to search for a resolution against drug makers of opioids in which he filed suit earlier. Also speaking was State Senator of District 17 Bob Peterson who encouraged others to get out and vote as did US Congressman Bill Johnson. Kennison Saunders announced he would step down from his position as chairman with the Gallia Republican Party in May. Judy Jones was also recognized for her years of service to the party. Next up were candidates for county offices. “Since I’ve been in office, I’ve tried to utilize new technology,” said Gallia County Auditor Larry Betz as he addressed the crowd about his bid for reelection. “My first year as auditor, I created a website which is used everyday by a lot of you folks in the room, real estate folks and bankers. I’ve utilized aerial photography as another tool we use in the office… This year I’m going to focus on a Facebook forget Gallia County or the other counties in this part of the state.” DeWine claimed he was a pro-life advocate and leader and while in US Senate wrote a bill called the Unborn Victims of Violence act which said when a pregnant woman was attacked, there were two victims. Dewine has investigated Planned Parenthood in the state as its attorney general. DeWine said there were no stronger advocates for the amendment than he and his running mate, Jon Husted. The attorney general said he challenged previous President Barack Obama saying he would join lawsuits challenging presidential decisions they felt were illegal. DeWine said that if he becomes governor, sanctuary cities will not be allowed in Ohio to which he received applause. He said his office has focused on resolving untested rape kits throughout the state as attorney general to get rapists off the street. “I think the number one job of a governor is to focus on jobs,” said Dewine. “Good paying jobs, the governor’s job is to create pro-growth and job. You do that by keeping taxes down and regulations down.” DeWine said he would page to announce things that’s going on in the office and deadlines… It’s to help the public to know what’s going on and when and they can correspond back to us. I’m a big believer in using technology to our advantage. I appreciate your vote and support in the past and this year as well.” “I’m Harold Montgomery and I’m up for re-election this year,” said the Gallia County Commissioner. “I had a four-year contract with you. I’m in the last year and asking you to renew that if you would please. I’m very proud to be part of this ticket this year from the top down. We have Congressman Bill Johnson. We’re going to have for governor Mike DeWine. Ryan Smith, Bob Peterson and Larry Betz. This is a dream ticket in my mind. I was earlier on thinking that with Husted and DeWine, both great people on the ticket, if they ran against each other it could cause problems but things have a way of working themselves out.

She would later serve on the NAACP’s executive board and become the first woman president of the NAACP’s Cincinnati branch. She was the first African American woman elected to Cincinnati City Council. She and her husband Donald Spencer, Sr., both labored to desegregate the University of Cincinnati, according to Marian’s biographer and decadeslong friend Dot Christenson, among other endeavors. Donald was an activist in his own right, tackling issues both with and apart from Marian, the writer said. Between Marian and her husband, the pair share two sons. Donald was a former chairman of the Ohio University Board of Trustees. Despite a lifetime of achievement in Cincinnati, she was not born there. Marian is a Gallia County native. She attended Gallia Academy High School with her twin Mildred and both were recognized as valedictorians in 1938. They would eventually attend the University of Cincinnati as scholarship students. When asked what civil service and activism meant to her, past Gallipolis resident and past Vice Mayor of the Cincinnati City Council Marian reflected on a life of fighting for equality and seeking to bring communities together. Marian was recently honored by the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County. The University of Cincinnati is set to name a dorm after her and the University of Cincinnati is set to award Marian with the William Howard Taft Medal for Notable Achievement, slated for April said Christenson. “There were many things that went on (in Gallipolis and Cincinnati) and whenever I see something I think is wrong I speak to it,” said Marian. “A lot of people don’t. They keep quiet or speak to their friends and they share their anger. I always spoke out and never said a bad word, didn’t have to. But when I thought something need changing, I spoke about it.” Marian said when she was a girl she remembered a man came to her house around the age of 13 in Gallipolis seeking members for the NAACP. “We joined because Dad knew it was right and we were helping an even bigger body than Gallipolis to correct the things that were wrong,” said Marian. “He said then that ‘I and my family’ will be members of the organization.” Marian first began her challenge to Coney Island after she called to inquire about an advertisement her family had heard inviting all children to the amusement park. She asked Courtesy photos Tom Brush, NAACP President Melvin Jones, Wendall Young, Marian Spencer and Sherrod Brown during the 1985 Cincinnati Council campaign. “We learned that there were things in life that you didn’t have to like and you didn’t have to accept.” —Marian Spencer if all children were welcome and the answering woman responded that they were. Marian said that “We are negroes” and wanted to know if her family would be admitted if she brought them to the park. The woman responded in the negative. Marian would eventually reach out to the administration of the park and tell them she felt the park should be open to all children in the area. “I called to all the people I knew in the city and I had mostly black women who joined me because all our children were affected by it and we set out to do what we could to make them change,” said Marian. “I got everybody together and we went up there and were refused at the gate and we filed suit and won the case.” Marian’s grandfather, Henry Washington Walker Alexander, was a slave who, after gaining control of his life, stressed the importance of reading and education to his family. Marian remembers her father, Harry McDonald Alexander, leading her sister “Millie” and herself to the second level of their home in Gallipolis on a balcony one evening in 1928 when the Ku Klux Klan marched by with flaming torches. “Dad said to us ‘Come and stand beside me,’” Marian said. “’You don’t have to be afraid,’ he said. ‘Those are white men under sheets who are wrong.’ We weren’t afraid of things like that because we knew they were wrong.” Marian said she took to heart the importance of education and speaking up for children in her activism as they oftentimes “couldn’t fight for themselves” and they were lessons learned from her elders. “We learned that there were things in life that you didn’t have to like and you didn’t have to Donald Spencer and Marian Spencer with then Senator Barack Obama in 2008.

Marian’s life is detailed by Christenson in the book “Keep on Fighting: the Life and Civil Rights Legacy of Marian A. Spencer.” Christenson said lately she has been writing plays based on Spencer’s experiences and is open to sharing them with performing centers or schools as they are “vital learning experiences” that should be learned by others.

And despite a national presence that graced his later years, Sibley never forsook the area in which he was born, raised and met disappointment in his early adult life, only to rise to prominence on the basis of his editorial voice. McIntyre, who knew and worked alongside Sibley during his younger years, found those qualities stayed with the man throughout the remainder of his life: “He loved his hometown, its people and its newspaper. As he grew older, he took on the serene dignity of thoughtful years. He had a finely chiseled face, a mop of tumbly hair, turned white, like Mark Twain, and deep-set, piercing eyes.

National Nutrition Month® is an annual nutrition education and information campaign created by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

Wood, Gheen, Ohlinger and Deem emphasized the importance of reporting items, particularly social media posts, to the authorities rather than making comments on the posts or spreading the information. “Think before you react,” cautioned the Sheriff. He added that authorities will not tolerate those who continue to stir things up and induce panic. “Call and we can investigate,” said Wood. “Be socially responsible,” added Deem. Meigs Local hosted a presentation in late February on avoiding social media land mines, putting on the presentation for students, as well as hosting a parent night. Gheen said the district is looking into the possibility of a link on the website or an app where tips and information can be reported. On campus, mental health is at the forefront, noted Long. Long explained that the University has a threat assessment team in place to access potential risks and threats on campus, working to get the students the help they may need which can turn a potential negative into a positive.

Falcons nip GA in district semi By Alex Hawley ahawley@aimmediamidwest.com ATHENS, Ohio — When it came down to it, district experience paid off. In the Division II district semifinal on Thursday at Ohio University, the second-seeded Fairfield Union boys basketball team punched a ticket to its third straight district final, squeaking out a 49-46 victory over third-seeded Gallia Academy, which was playing in its first district tournament in a decade. After a pair of early lead changes, Fairfield Union (19-5) held Gallia Academy (20-4) off the board for nearly four minutes, and jumped out to a 9-4 advantage. The Falcons connected on four three-pointers in the opening quarter, and led 16-9 at the end of the stanza. FUHS led by as many as nine points in the second quarter, but the Blue Devils battled back to within two points, at 25-23. The Falcons’ second triple of the stanza gave them a five-point lead, but Cory Call ended the period with a twopointer for GAHS, making the Fairfield Union lead 28-25 at halftime. Gallia Academy took a 29-28 lead on back-toback Evan Wiseman field goals to start the second half. Fairfield Union briefly regained the lead, but a GAHS senior Evan Wiseman goes in for a layup during the Blue Devils’ 49-46 loss to Fairfield Union on Thursday at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio. Justin McClelland trifecta gave the Blue and White a 32-30 edge. The Falcons tied the game twice, but the Blue Devils took a 36-34 advantage into the fourth. A Kaden Thomas threepointer gave the Blue Devils a five-point, 39-34 lead with 6:44 to play. However, nine seconds later Spencer Conrad answered with a threepointer for the Falcons. Fairfield Union tied the game twice before ultimately taking the advantage, at 43-41, with 2:41 remaining. A two-pointer by McClelland tied the game, at 43, with 2:29 to play, but Evan Conley made two-pointer with 57 seconds to go and then back-to-back free throws with 16 seconds left to give FUHS a four-point, 47-43 lead. McClelland hit a threepointer with nine seconds remaining, pulling the Blue and White within one point, at 47-46. Two more free throws by Conley made the Falcon lead three points with eight seconds left. Gallia Academy’s shot to force overtime bounced off of the rim at the buzzer, and Fairfield Union escaped with the 49-46 victory. “We knew that if we kept the score low, we had an opportunity,” GAHS head coach Gary Harrison said. “They let the game play, it was physical, and it kind of worked to our advantage with our height. We just didn’t make the layups at the end of the game when we had to have them. I’m happy with how our kids battled, they played hard, Fairfield Union is a good team.” The Blue Devils made 20-of-39 (51.3 percent) field goal attempts, including 5-of-12 (41.7 percent) three-point tries. Fairfield Union shot 18-of-42 (42.9 percent) from the field, including 7-of-19 (36.8 percent) from deep. At the free throw line, GAHS was 1-of-3 (33.3 percent) while FUHS was a perfect 6-of-6. The Falcons claimed a 20-to-15 edge in rebounding, including 5-to-2 on the offensive end. GAHS recorded all-5 of the game’s blocked shots and had a 13-to-10 advantage in assists, while Fairfield Union claimed a 3-to-2 steals edge. Both teams had four turnovers in the contest.

Rio Grande, which was also playing its home opener, improved to 6-13 with a second straight win. Ohio Christian dropped to 2-10 with a sixth straight loss. Harvey, a native of Kenova, W.Va., picked up his first win in four decisions this season by scattering three hits, walking one and striking out 11 batters in a 98-pitch complete game effort. OCU starter Logan Webb was nearly as impressive, taking a shutout of his own - in addition to a no-hitter - into the sixth inning. But that’s when the RedStorm rallied for what proved to be the only offense it would need. Sophomore Dylan Shockley (Minford, OH) led off with a single to end Webb’s no-hit bid and was replaced by junior courtesy runner Zac Morris (Heath, OH). Junior David Rodriguez (Santo Domingo, D.R.) followed with a walk, a passed ball moved both runners into scoring position and senior Ty Warnimont (Rio Grande, OH) dumped a single into shallow right to score Morris with the game’s first run. Sophomore Eli Daniels (Minford, OH) was then hit by a pitch to load the bases and sophomore Caden Cluxton (Washington Court House, OH) followed with a sacrifice fly to make it 2-0. Webb escaped any further damage by coaxing junior Michael Rodriguez (Santo Domingo, D.R.) into an inning-ending double-play. The RedStorm gave Harvey all the insurance he would need, though, in the home half of the eighth inning by parlaying five hits and a pair of walks into five more runs against a pair of Trailblazers’ relievers. David Rodriguez led off the inning with a single off OCU right-hander Tyler France and, one out later, consecutive hits by Daniels and Cluxton loaded the bases. Michael Rodriguez and sophomore pinch-hitter Santiago Martinez (Gahanna, OH) drew consecutive walks the second of which was issued by reliever Hunter Gray - to force in runs, before senior Juan Cruz (Juana Diaz, P.R.) had a two-run single and senior Cody Blackburn (Amanda, OH) followed with an RBI hit of his own. Cruz finished 2-for-3 at the plate and was the only player for either team with multiple hits in the contest. Webb suffered his fourth loss in as many decisions for OCU, despite allowing just three hits and one walk with seven strikeouts over seven innings. The three-game weekend series concludes Saturday with a noon doubleheader. Game one will be a nine-inning contest, while the nightcap will be seven innings.

Fairfield Union will have to deal with Ohio Valley Conference champion Fairland next, as the Falcons and Dragons battle in the district final on Friday at the Convo. Gallia Academy must now say farewell to its three seniors. “Evan Wiseman, Kaden Thomas and Gage Harrison have been with us for four years, they went through the tough times and now they’ve come up through the great times,” Coach Harrison said. “They’ve really brought our basketball program back to where it used to be. They’ve been great leaders this year, they’re a big part of this program and they’re always going to be.” After reaching 20 wins for the first time in 15 seasons, ending a 10-year sectional title drought, and finishing second in the OVC, the Blue Devils head into the offseason with some of experience of their own. “I just hate for it to end,” Coach Harrison said. “One thing I can say, as the year went on we got better, that was our main objective. It’s been an unbelievable year, we had some adversity at the beginning, we came together as a team, won a bunch of games in a row, lost a couple, and fought back. “We won a couple we should have lost, and probably lost one we should have won. The kids never hung their heads, they came to practice ready to play. The mark is going to be really high for next year. I do know that they’re hungry and that this was a great experience for them.” Fry you have young ones coming in that will help with numbers. Our numbers got a little low this year, because of attrition.” In addition to their success on the court, the Marauders have also excelled in the classroom. “I’m really proud of our academic record,” Fry said. “I can’t take a lot of credit for it, the kids do that, but we support and encourage that. As coaches we’ve had two academic All-Ohioans. Two years ago we were second in the entire state, regardless of class, in a number of gold and silver certificates for a 3.2 GPA-or-higher.” Between the lines, the calling card for the Marauders in the last four seasons has been defense. The number on that card was 1-3-1. “For 30 years I was a man-to-man coach,” Fry said. “When I came here, I looked around and saw what the other teams were doing and I wanted something unique, something that would give us an identity and something that would cause other coaches to spend a lot of time on preparation. We needed all the edges we could find and the personnel fit it well.” The thing Fry said he’ll miss most about the high school game is working with the kids. “We have a terrific bunch of young men here,” Fry said. “They were so much fun to go into practice everyday with, because they’re eager to learn. Just watching how they developed over the course of a very rough season, showed their grit and determination. I consider myself a teacher of the game, so coming in every day and being able to teach from the basics on up was a terrific experience.” Also leaving the MHS program after four years as Fry’s assistant coach is Paul Jewell. “He has been so loyal to me,” Fry said. “Going into this year I had zero assistant coaches, Coach Jewell wasn’t going to coach. He saw the situation and said ‘I can’t do that’. He cares a lot for the kids and he’s very loyal to me, so he came back this year and coached.” Fry brings 36 years of coaching experience to Rio Grande, with three of those seasons coming at the college level, at Ohio University-Southern. At OU-S, a non-scholarship program, Fry was an assistant coach for two seasons and a head coach for one year. “It’s a different ball game,” Fry said. “There you’re talking about basketball without distractions.” Fry — who has worked as part of Rio Grande’s summer basketball camp — is looking forward to working with RedStorm head coach Ken French again. “Coach French and I go back a long, long way,” Fry said. “I gave him his first paid coaching gig at Huntington St. Joe, he was my assistant coach. He went on from there to Tusculum and then to Rio Grande. Over the years I went on recruiting trips with him occasionally, and learned a lot in that time. He helped me a lot when he was my assistant coach, so hopefully I can return the favor.” At Rio Grande, Fry will be working on fine-tuning the post players, as well as working with the team in the weight room and recruiting throughout Southeast Ohio. The RedStorm went 10-20 on the court this season. “To my knowledge, that’s really the only tournament that Meigs has From page 1B really gone out of state to,” Fry said. “That was a big turning point in that second season, the program’s first 18-win season season, we went down since 1986-87.

It was a no-brainer, until Carr decided otherwise. Carr found Josh Reaves for a game-winning dunk with 3.1 seconds to play and Penn State may have punched its ticket to the NCAA Tournament with a 69-68 victory over Ohio State in the quarterfinals of the conference tournament on Friday night. “It was ‘Fist Two’, basically try to get the mismatch and I was just trying to make a play,” Carr said. “And Josh basically made the play. He made a great cut. I was just out there dribbling around. Josh made a great play. And I thank God I found him.” It was a great ending in more ways than one. The Nittany Lions (2212) scored the final five points in beating the 13th-ranked Buckeyes for last-second shot by C.J. Jackson was not close. “Give Penn State credit, I thought they made the necessary plays down the stretch,” Ohio State coach Chris Holtmann said. “Tough back and forth game. We’ll learn from it and get ready for the tournament.” Bates-Diop carried the Buckeyes in the second half, scoring 17 of his 25 points. However, all he is probably going to remember is losing the ball with 21 seconds to go and his team ahead 68-67. Kam Williams and Jae’Sean Tate each added 10 points for the Buckeyes, who will wait for their invitation to the NCAA Tournament in a little more than a week.

Garner made a crucial NFL teams finally get to see QB hopefuls at combine INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — This year’s deep class of quarterbacks features as many as a half dozen first-round NFL prospects full of hope, hype and hazard. There’s Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield and questions about the Heisman winner’s size and stature. A lot of teams would love UCLA’s Josh Rosen for his skills and strength but wonder if he’s a good fit in the locker room and their organization. Wyoming’s Josh Allen has enviable size but faces questions about his regression last season. USC’s Sam Darnold has to answer queries about his ball security and why he’s not throwing at the NFL combine this weekend like the other prospects. Louisville’s Lamar Jackson , the 2016 Heisman winner, needs to prove he’s a better pro prospect throwing the ball than catching it. And teams wonder if Oklahoma State’s Mason Rudolph can transition to the pro offense after operating exclusively out of the shotgun. Will these guys be the next Carson Wentz, who ignited the Philadelphia Eagles’ Super Bowl run in just his second season before getting hurt and rooting on Nick Foles from the sideline? Or will they be the next Paxton Lynch, the 2016 first-round flop whose inability to grasp the complexities of the pro game has Broncos GM John Elway once again searching for answers at quarterback? Elway has found it difficult to land a franchise quarterback from the col- lege ranks like he did in free agency with Peyton Manning six years ago. Last year, the Broncos cycled through his draft picks Brock Osweiler, Trevor Siemian and Lynch during the team’s worst season in decades. “Believe me, I’m not done swinging and See COMBINE | 4B Hospice of Huntington is now hiring for work in Mason & Gallia Counties.

I just didn’t expect it to all happen during a single, long, Presidents’ Day weekend. Consider this: we had a storm with high winds, power outages and flash flooding on Friday, an unexpected snowstorm on Saturday, and Ohio River flooding Sunday and Monday, followed by record highs on Tuesday. Fortunately we missed the follow-up flood (which was supposed to be even bigger) the next weekend. It was like climate change was condensed into a single long weekend. Of course wildly changing weather is typical of the Ohio River Valley, hence the old saying “If you don’t like the weather, wait five minutes; it’ll change.” What was so different about the Presidents’ Day Flood than floods we’ve experienced in previous years? Nothing really, the river goes up and the river goes down, just like it has for the past 2.5 to 3 million years. (Inciden- tally, the Ohio River is a youngster in river years; especially compared to its misnamed tributary the New River, which may be as old as 65 million years.) The same places flooded that have always flooded; if you have lived in the Great Bend any length of time, you know those places and roads to avoid, as well as the shortcut “flood roads” to get around the standing water. One good thing, the “new” portion of U.S. 33 from Ravenswood to Five Points made getting around a lot easier than it had been in the past. However, it had actually been a few years since the last inundation; the last one was on Jan. 9, 2005 – more than 13 years ago – and there are people driving cars now that aren’t old enough to remember it. Actually the biggest difference between this Ohio River flood and those of the past is that this one was well-documented and shared on social media. It was our first Facebook Flood, and hence we were deluged with high-quality digital pictures including follow-up floodstills, video, and that-wasn’t were a even live video reminder that we from drones.

He can be contacted weekdays at 740-992-4282 or at jim.freeman@ oh.nacdnet.net Browns GM Dorsey willing to take calls about No. 1 pick quarterback has become perhaps the mostwatched show in the league. They’ve used 28 different starters since 1999, and it’s unclear if they’ll cast aside yet another youngster, DeShone Kizer, after he led the league in interceptions and went 0-15 as the starter. Dorsey has the advantage of having watched Kizer perform in the final four games of 2017. “What I really liked was how much he improved from week to week,” Dorsey said. “I think I’ve told you that a young quarterback usually makes exponential growth from Year 1 to Year 2.” Back home, anxious fans are still clamoring to find that elusive franchise quarterback. They’re frustrated after watching Cleveland whiff on Johnny Manziel in 2015, trade the No. 2 pick to Philadelphia in 2016 that allowed the Eagles to choose Carson Wentz and pass last year on Deshaun Watson. Instead, they took Kizer in the second round. And with a deep quarterback class and two of the top four picks in April, some think this could finally be the time. Dorsey might not see it the same way. After acknowledging the Browns interviewed an unnamed quarterback on Wednesday night and intend to meet all of the big names before the bulk of the combine work wraps up Sunday, he dropped no hints about what the Browns might do with either pick. Instead, he’s looking for long-term solutions. Coach Hue Jackson, who is 1-31 over the last two seasons, certainly isn’t advocating for more change. “I would hope not,” Jackson said when asked Wednesday if he intends to start a rookie QB. “There’s going to be other opportunities as we all know. We’ve just got to see how it all fits as we move forward.” Finding a veteran quarterback in free agency, such as AJ McCarron, remains a possibility, too. But if a quarterbackneedy team is willing to make a quality offer, Dorsey could spend all of those precious picks on putting a better supporting cast around Kizer. Dorsey also didn’t provide an update on the status of longtime left tackle Joe Thomas. After playing more than 10,000 consecutive snaps, Thomas ended the season on injured reserve with a torn left triceps and has been pondering retirement. “I have greatly admired Joe from his time at Wisconsin through his time with the Browns,” Dorsey said. “I think he deserves a little respect and when it comes time to make the proper decision, I’m sure he’ll make it.” Elway could go after a veteran again in free agency such as Kirk CousFrom page 3B ins.

Maybe not like his own class in 1983, which produced three Hall of Famers in himself, Dan Marino and Jim Kelly, but this year’s crop of quarterbacks is filled with intrigue and promise. And plenty of questions. Among them: 6-2 and 9½ inches. Elway, for one, isn’t concerned, about Mayfield’s measurements. “I think that (stigma) has been broken,” Elway said. “You’ve got Drew Brees — they’ve proven that you can do it. He’s obviously very much a competitor. He’s had a great college career and won the Heisman Trophy. He’s proved he can play.” Nor is Elway turned off by Mayfield’s crossing the line at times. He was arrested last year and charged with disorderly conduct, public intoxication and resisting arrest. After the Kansas Jayhawks wouldn’t shake his hand, he was caught on camera grabbing his crotch and swearing at the Kansas sideline. “A lot of times you get tied up in the emotions of the situation and where he is. I like to see a guy with that kind of passion,” Elway said. try to be more than what he has to be, a really good leader. I don’t really have anything negative to say about him.” Neither does center Scott Quessenberry, who said the negative rap of Rosen is unfair “because of the type of guy that he is and the type of standup human being that he is and the type of pro that he’s going to be.” “He’s a great dude, I love hanging around him and being with him, and whoever gets him is extremely lucky.

When UCLA announced its 15-year, $280-million deal with Under Armour, Rosen used the big contract to mock the NCAA’s nonprofit status on social media. Questions have arisen about how well Rosen will get along with his new teammates in the NFL, but two of his Bruins teammates also at the combine quickly dismissed those concerns. “Josh came in No. 1 high school guy, a little cocky, of course you hear off-campus stuff about him, but as the years went on he really matured,” tackle Kolton Miller said. “He’s really well-rounded, he doesn’t Catch and throw Some teams want to see the dual-threat Jackson working out the wide receivers this week and not just slinging it around with the quarterbacks.

He’s explosive.” �CLASSIFIEDS Sunday Times-Sentinel LEGALS EMPLOYMENT REAL ESTATE FOR RENT Sunday, March 4, 2018 5B LEGAL ADVERTISEMENT ANIMALS (Sale of Old Football Stadium and Grounds) Help Wanted General 3XEOLF 1RWLFH 7KH *DOOLD &RXQW\ )DPLO\ DQG &KLOGUHQ )LUVW &RXQFLO V ILQDQFLDO VWDWHPHQWV IRU &DOHQGDU <HDU ���� DUH FRPSOHWH DQG DYDLODEOH IRU UHYLHZ DW �� 6KDZQHH /DQH� *DOOLSROLV� 2KLR� &RQWDFW /LVD &DUUROO� ,QWHUV\VWHP &RRUGLQDWRU EHWZHHQ WKH KRXUV RI ���� D�P� DQG ���� S�P� 0RQGD\ WKURXJK 7KXUVGD\ DW ��� �������� IRU DQ DSSRLQWPHQW� ������ THE CHESHIRE TOWNSHIP BOARD OF TRUSTEES WOULD LIKE TO INFORM THE PUBLIC THAT THE TOWNSHIP RECORDS ARE KEPT AT THE TOWNSHIP OFFICE LOCATED IN KYGER AT 100 KYGER CEMETERY ROAD, CHESHIRE, OHIO 45620, AND ARE AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING GIVEN THE REQUEST TO THE FISCAL OFFICER AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES, AND WITH THE ALLOWANCE OF THREE BUSINESS DAYS TO PROCESS THE REQUEST. 3/4/18 � EHGURRP DSW� LQ FRXQWU\ IUHVKO\ SDLQWHG ZLWK DSSOLDQFHV �� PLQXWHV IURP WRZQ ������� 1R 3HWV ������������ RU ������������ 14 Angus Bulls- top performance and blood lines priced reasonable.Slate Run Angus Jackson, Oh 740-418-0633 see www.slaterunangus.com Houses For Rent AUTOS 1HZHU KRPH TXLWH FRXQWU\ VHWWLQJ 1R 6PRNLQJ�1R 3HWV� ���� PWK� SOXV GHSRVLW ������������ $$$$$$$$$ MOTOR ROUTE Would to deliver deliver Wouldyou you like like to newspapers as an newspapers as an independent contractor independent contractor under under an agreement with the an agreement with Point Pleasant 5IF�1PJOU�1MFBTBOU� 3FHJTUFS Register? s Be your own boss s � day delivery s Delivery times is approx. 3 hours daily s Must be 18 years of age s Must have a valid driver’s license, dependable vehicle & provide proof of insurance s Must provide your own substitute OPERATE YOUR OWN BUSINESS WITH POTENTIAL REVENUE OVER $1,000 PER MONTH For more please email For information more information at pleaseDerrick email Morrison 5ZMFS�8PMGF at UXPMGF@civitasmedia.com�or dmorrison@aimmediamidwest.com apply person at ����5IJSE� or callin740-446-2342 ext: 2097 "WF� �(BMMJQPMJT �0) Stop by our local office for an application: �Mon-Fri 8:30 am - 4:30 pm 200 Main St. $$ $ $ $ WV $ $25550 $$ Pt.

The All-Star forward, sidelined since Jan. 29 with a broken left hand, said Friday he could return sooner than expected. The initial timetable was for him to be out two months. “If I can get back before eight weeks, great,” he said. “So I’m hoping that that is the case.” Love’s recovery has picked up speed in recent days. He’s now able to catch the ball with a padded glove to protect his left hand, and the progress is such that there’s less risk for re-injury. “One of the things I can do now is kind of catch the ball, guide it and shoot it within 12-15 feet so that feels good to do something other than run on the treadmill or run on the bike so it’s nice,” he said. The Cavaliers have been transformed since the last time Love played, with their roster overhauled by three trades before the deadline. Cleveland is just 3-4 since to figure it out.” There will be another adjustment when Love returns, but it won’t be as if Lue has to re-teach him how to play with LeBron James, J.R. Smith and Tristan Thompson, the four players remaining from Cleveland’s 2016 NBA title team. The Cavs may not be the same, but Love believes they remain strong. “We have guys who have been here and know exactly what to expect moving forward,” said Love, who is averaging 17.9 points, 9.4 rebounds and shooting 40 percent on 3-pointers. “So it’s on us to bring everybody along and have veteran guys push maybe the younger guys or the new Brandon Dill | AP file guys through the process. Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love, who has been sidelined since late January with a broken left hand, said Friday that he’s … progressing well and could return sooner than expected. Love has been out since Jan. 29 and was expected to miss two months. “The coaching staff has remained the same so we know what they want “I feel good about this interested observer, Love a few tough ones. adding guards George out of us.

Reduced to a role of JR Smith tosses soup at assistant; Cavs ladle out 1-game ban INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP) — Chicken noodle or tomato? J.R. Smith didn’t serve up any explanation. Cleveland’s mercurial shooting guard declined an interview request Friday, a day after the Cavaliers suspended him one game for throwing a bowl of soup at assistant coach Damon Jones. The soup toss came following Thursday’s shootaround at the team’s training facility, hours before the Cavs played the Philadelphia 76ers, a person with direct knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Friday. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team has not disclosed details. Smith was with his teammates Friday — the Cavs didn’t practice, but watched film — and after getting in some extra shots, he told a team spokesman he will address the media at Saturday’s shootaround before the Cavs play Denver. Until then, what triggered his brothy out- Smith was with his teammates Friday — the Cavs didn’t practice, but watched film — and after getting in some extra shots, he told a team spokesman he will address the media at Saturday’s shootaround before the Cavs play Denver. burst remains a mystery. ESPN.com first reported the reason for Smith’s suspension. Cavs coach Tyronn Lue said Smith did not address the team over the latest drama for a team that has had no shortage of theater this season. “I had a little discussion with him,” Lue said before refusing to say if he was the one who suspended Smith. The 32-year-old Smith, who served his suspension while the Cavs were beaten by the Sixers, had a history of fines and other issues before arriving in Cleveland by a trade in 2014. However, he’s had few problems with the Cavs and has been a key member of three straight Eastern Conference champion- ship teams. Smith has endeared himself to Cleveland fans with his hustle and knack for knocking down big shots. But Smith hasn’t been himself this season. He’s always been a streaky shooter, but his shot isn’t falling as often. In 59 games (56 starts), Smith is averaging 8.3 points — the secondlowest average of his career — and shooting 39 percent. An emotional player and person, Smith was clearly bothered by the arrival before the season of Dwyane Wade, who briefly took his starting spot. Wade was traded to Miami at the deadline, and the move seemed to invigorate Smith. Rodney Hood started in Smith’s place against the Sixers and scored 11 points on 5 of 14 shooting. Before Thursday’s game, Lue said Smith will return to the starting lineup following his 2006 F-250 SD XLT SUPERCAB LONG BED 4WD CutestContest Pet Think your Pet has what it takes to be crowned the cutest pet around?
